Firstly thanks to all those who took the time to review and give feedback on my first attempt at producing a photo web site.

I have now revised the site trying to take onboard all the comments I received.

If you have time please take a look and let me know what you think.

I found comments on one of the forums to a package called JAlbum, I have only one comment on it and that is it is fantastic, I cannot believe it is a freebie!!!

Hope that you find this version more pleasing and worth a visit.

Thanks

John

Quote: Monitoring and analysing your Web site's traffic is important. Serious sites analyse their server logs to glean a wealth of information about who's visiting. There are plenty of fine tools for doing this available free, so there is never any need to rely on such a crude and imprecise measurement as the so-called "hit counter." It's another piece of visual clutter that serves no purpose, and is considered one of the classic signs of a tyro's site.

Take the 'hit' counter off.

Take a look here.

It is getting better and it's easier to navigate. Keep at it.

Actually isn't the image size info just the exif data? Not sure why its there, but the image sizes look fine; they load nice and fast.

You're obviously having a lot of fun with this! I wonder what screen resolution you're working at? With a screen set to 1024x768 which seems to be the standard entry level screen these days, your visitors will be scrolling their screens to see all the portrait oriented images. I try to post images no more than 500 pixels high to avoid this. If you're sure your visitor have fancy big monitors this is of course not a problem.

Take a look at statcounter.com its free and you get great and useful site traffic stats and you can configure it so that there is no visible 'hit meter' on your webpages.

[OT] A bit of study of early photography might help you not make the mistake of thinking it was all "point and shoot". Check Hurley or Adams for example.

It might be worth re-reading the home-page text for grammatical errors too.
